I can send you some deadly ram if it suits your rig. I've still got that ram on the book shelf sitting here doing nothing. It's currently a resting place for my Aqua Dragon food. It'll make your system a lot snappier. OC your CPU to 4.6 or more and it'll be a night and day difference.

If you wanna get a new gpu just google your gpu vs one you're looking at and there are some sites that compare them. Here's a start. You'll have it sorted in no time.
